Propene and cyclopropane ( $C X_{3} H X_{6}$ ) show

Aposition isomerism
Bring-chain isomerism
Cmetamerism
Dchain isomerism

Answer: B

They have the same formula

C X_{3} H X_{6}

, but one has an open chain with a C=C bond and the other is a ring. Isomerism between an open-chain and a cyclic structure is called ring-chain isomerism.
